I just read this fascinating page on Turkey using sim
nomadic-one.com - Affordable Internet anywhere in Turkey through GPRS/EDGE

but it sounds complicated to me, I've not travelled with laptop before how do you use one in conjunction with a mobile phone? ]]> Communications Arow http://www.horizonsunlimited.com/hubb/communications/mobile-internet-europe-greece-turkey-46626 http://www.horizonsunlimited.com/hubb/communications/mobile-broadband-in-india-46594 Thu, 19 Nov 2009 18:36:44 GMT Not that it'd be really neccessary given the availability of internet cafes in India, but for the addicts or those like me that need to work using their own laptop, Reliance currently have a special deal for Mobile Broadband. The postpaid option will be difficult without address in Inida, but they have a prepaid option too.

For RS 3500 you get a USB modem and 10 GB worth of bandwidth valid 30 days from activation. Some 35 cities have high speed access (e.g. Delhi, Lucknow, Mumbai, etc), but you get slower yet decent enough speed out in the woods too (comparable to most net cafes). ]]> Communications Sirakor http://www.horizonsunlimited.com/hubb/communications/mobile-broadband-in-india-46594 http://www.horizonsunlimited.com/hubb/communications/sim-card-west-africa-calling-46587 Thu, 19 Nov 2009 13:46:10 GMT Can anyone recommend a good sim card for calls from Morocco, Mauritania & Senegal to the UK ? ]]> Communications AberdeenAngus http://www.horizonsunlimited.com/hubb/communications/sim-card-west-africa-calling-46587 http://www.horizonsunlimited.com/hubb/communications/12v-multi-output-adaptor-46582 Thu, 19 Nov 2009 10:49:10 GMT Thought this may be of intrest to you guys.

I'm not keen on PC's but obviously a Mac is going to be too expensive and it'll probably get nicked or broken anyway, so a PC it is.

Main requirements -
1. Cheap.
2. Cheap.
3. Wifi-ability.
4. Ability to put photos onto CD.
5. Sturdy.

I'll be buying in Texas (or northern Mexico).
